Answer : The cell potential is, 0.090 V

Explanation :

The values of standard reduction electrode potential of the cell are:

E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}=-0.13V

E^0_{[Fe^{3+}/Fe]}=-0.036V

From the given cell representation we conclude that, the lead (Pb) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons and thus act as anode. Iron (Fe) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

The half reaction will be:

Reaction at anode (oxidation) : Pb\rightarrow Pb^{2+}+2e^-     E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}=-0.13V

Reaction at cathode (reduction) : Fe^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Fe     E^0_{[Fe^{3+}/Fe]}=-0.036V

The balanced cell reaction will be,  

3Pb(s)+2Fe^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow 3Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Fe(s)

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

E^o=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o=E^o_{[Fe^{3+}/Fe]}-E^o_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}

E^o=(-0.036V)-(-0.13V)=0.094V

Now we have to calculate the cell potential when the concentration of Fe^{3+} changed by 1.052 M.

Initial concentration of Fe^{3+} = 2.13 M

New concentration of Fe^{3+} = 2.13 - 2x

As we are given that, 2x = 1.052

So, x = 0.526

New concentration of Fe^{3+} = 2.13 - 2x = 2.13 - 1.052 = 1.078 M

Initial concentration of Pb^{2+} = 1.07 M

New concentration of Pb^{2+} = 1.07 + 3x = 1.07 + 3(0.526) = 2.648 M

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Pb^{2+}]}{[Fe^{3+}]}

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 6

E_{cell} = emf of the cell = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=0.094-\frac{0.0592}{6}\log \frac{(2.648)}{(1.078)}

E_{cell}=0.090V

Therefore, the cell potential is, 0.090 V

What is the molarity of aqueous lithium bromide if 25.0 mL of LiBr reacts with 10.0 mL of 0.250 M Pb(NO 3) 2
bixtya [17]

The molarity of aqueous lithium bromide, LiBr solution is 0.2 M

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ in the solution.

  • Volume = 10 mL = 10 / 1000 = 0.01 L
  • Molarity of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.250 M
  • Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.25 × 0.01

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.0025 mole

Next, we shall determine the mole of LiBr required to react with 0.0025 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2LiBr —> PbBr₂ + 2LiNO₃

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ reacted with 2 mole of LiBr.

Therefore,

0.0025 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ will react with = 2 × 0.0025 = 0.005 mole of LiBr

Finally, we shall determine the molarity of the LiBr solution

  • Mole = 0.005 mole
  • Volume = 25 mL = 25 / 1000 = 0.025 L
  • Molarity of LiBr =?

Molarity = mole / Volume

Molarity of LiBr = 0.005 / 0.025

Molarity of LiBr = 0.2 M

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The yearly release of CO_2 into the atmosphere is 6.73\times 10^{10} kg.

Explanation:

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s) + CO_2(g)

Annual production of CaO = 8.6\times 10^{10} kg=8.6\times 10^{13} g

Moles of CaO :

\frac{8.6\times 10^{13} g}{56 g/mol}=1.53\times 10^{12} moles

According to reaction, 1 mole of CaO is produced along with 1 mole of carbon-dioxide.

Then along with  1.53\times 10^{12} moles of CaO moles of carbon-dioxide moles produced will be:

\frac{1}{1}\times 1.53\times 10^{12} moles=1.53\times 10^{12} moles of carbon-dioxide

Mass of 1.53\times 10^{12} moles of carbon-dioxide:

1.53\times 10^{12}mol\times 44 g/mol=6.73\times 10^{13} g =6.73\times 10^{10} kg

The yearly release of CO_2 into the atmosphere is 6.73\times 10^{10} kg.
